Can I donate part of my liver?

A few years ago I had overdosed on 17 Tylenol pills. I was thirteen at the time so the doctors didn t tell me everything about what was going on in my body. Only that my liver was damaged, and if I hadn t gone to the hospital I would have died. I m sixteen now and this lady at my school came to tell my class about how we can become organ donors. I would like to become one, but I m wondering if I would be able to donate part of my liver if needed.

    your liver is CRITICAL to detoxify your own body. It is unlikely you can donate it even after death because of the damage you already did to it.
